Suggestion:
It would be nice to have some sort of "vote" tracking mechanism.
That way you can ask people to clarify a down vote or report abuse.
It will also avoid down vote unless necessary as it would not be anonymous anymore.V.

I just 1 voted your post.

In other words, I think that a 'vote tracking' mechanism is pointless, and isn't worth wasting anyone's time on. I find that the community is self-policing and is doing pretty good.

pretty good? mm, I disagree (when I started in CP, discussions were a lot more relaxed ).
In any case I appreciate you at least came out for the vote .V.

OK, I may partially agree with you on that.
But the point I was trying to make was that it may not be worth someone's time to build something in order to keep track of votes, as I think that votes are meaningless (in my opinion), unless they're on any of the programming q&a boards.
I'm open to be convinced otherwise though.

Maybe it is not worth the time, but I can't vouch for that, nor am I the one to decide if it is to be implemented.
Hence the word "Suggestion".  V.

I also disagree with you.
What I'm seeing is way to much one-voting of specific people and not on the merits of the posts.
But I don't have a better suggestion on what to do.
The best thing would be if people could simply stop feeding the trolls, but that seems to be as easy as telling a five year old to stop picking on a scab.
And I'm pretty sure the CP staff have better things to do than nannying us."When did ignorance become a point of view" - Dilbert

I agree. Having been down voted on some simple posts I have wondered why. However, I also see Rajesh's side. I too have no better suggestion.

Hi,
Today, I saw the results of VS 2010 is released. I saw a few articles, which I think cool.
Even I wrote one article for the competition :
Code InfoBox Visual Studio Extension (VSX) 2010[^]
I wrote this article on January. Is there anything wrong with that article, that makes it not selected in the winners list?
I think my article is the first one published for the competition, and its popularity is higher than all other articles that won the competition. (I am sure popularity is determined based on the weights of users who voted for my article)
I really dont bother about prizes..
Just thinking about the reason.
Thanks and Regards

I don't think winners are chosen purely on vote average or popularity. There may be a final selection panel of some sort that decided the winners, and given that they are human, their choices will be quite subjective.
So don't worry too much about it. Not winning does not mean your article's bad - just that the judge or judges did not like it for some reason. 
As you can see from your post rating, people were mad at you for merely asking this here : 1.73/5 (5 votes)
I personally think it's a valid question though in future you might want to email Chris directly! It's kinda awkward to ask in public why you did not win.

The graph should not automatically be displayed for everyone to see.
There should be an option to hide it.
M.Watched code never compiles.

Why is it so? Reputation is something one gain over a period of time with certain activity.
It conveys a lot about user. Don't find a reason to hide it for someone.

Perhaps some people would rather it remain private for any number of reasons so whilst you and I might be happy to expose our reputation graphs for public display, others may not. Maybe that should be their choice although there might be a case to say if you won't show it then you get no further points since, clearly, they are meaningless to you.
